The leggy, redheaded Twilight actress, Bryce Dallas Howard, has confirmed that, yes, she IS pregnant!   Howard and hubby of five years, actor Seth Gabel, welcomed son, Theo, in 2007 and are looking forward to adding to their very happy family.

US Weekly broke the news of Eclipse star’s baby bump after Howard showed up at the Cannes Film Festival looking a bit more… rotund, than usual.  No word yet on whether the new little bundle of joy will be on Team Edward or Team Jacob.

Howard, who suffered from Postpardum Depression after the birth of her first son, has become an outspoken advocate for women dealing with PPD.  In an essay for Gwyneth Paltrow’s GOOP Blog, Howard wrote,

Before Theo was born, I had been in good humor about my 80-pound weight gain, but I was now mortified by it…I felt I was failing at breast feeding. My house was a mess. I believed I was a terrible dog owner. I was certain I was an awful actress… Do I wish I had never endured postpartum depression? Absolutely… I…feel deep gratitude for those who stood by me, for the lesson that we must never be afraid to ask for help.

Good for you Bryce.  Looking forward to seeing your bouncing baby boy or girl in a few months!
